The GML was also the first bullion coin to achieve the LAUNCH DATE: heightened standard of 9999 fine. November 2014 All 1-ounce 99.99% pure GML Bullion coins produced for 2015 and beyond will have two unique features for enhanced security. ENHANCED SECURITY New in 2015, replacing the bullion finish on earlier coins, the radial lines in the new 2015 GML’s field ENHANCED have been precisely machined to within microns ACTUAL SIZE SECURITY on the master tooling to ensure reproducibility from die to die and coin to coin. The uniqueness of the line width and pitch gives this coin a characteristic look, and creates a light diffracting pattern that is specific to this coin. In 2013, the Mint introduced a new and unique Security Feature to confirm the authenticity of its GML coins. Derived from the same award-winning security technology applied to Canada’s $1 and $2 circulation coins, the GML Security Feature consists of a textured maple leaf, micro engraved with laser technology on a small area of the reverse side (Maple Leaf side) of the coin. In the centre of this mark, visible under magnification, is the numeral “15”, denoting the coin’s year of issue. SPECIAL FEATURES: • World’s first 24-karat modern bullion coin.

  • Maple Leaf Case Study: an Example of Crisis Management
    MAPLE LEAF CASE STUDY: AN EXAMPLE OF CRISIS MANAGEMENT By Colin P. Stevenson (plaintiffs' counsel) INTRODUCTION The first part of this paper provides an interested outsider's perspective on Maple Leaf's strategy to minimize its business and reputational damage. The paper will also deal more generally with current issues in the food processing industry in North America and the fact that consumers today are no safer than they were a year ago. Finally, this paper will consider some of the issues faced by plaintiffs' counsel if they are to work effectively with multiple legal teams in a national and highly visible class action. THE EVENTS OF AUGUST 2008 In mid August 2008 it was apparent there was a national public health tragedy involving food contamination. The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), which are federal agencies, were receiving reports of people becoming sick and dying from listeriosis nationwide. Although the source was not immediately identified, attention was soon focused on Maple Leaf Food's establishment #97B in Toronto. Maple Leaf Foods issued a "voluntary" recall. In other words, Maple Leaf Foods acted before a mandatory recall order was issued by CFIA. The recall was limited to 23 ready-to-eat packaged meat products. The first recall was issued on August 17, 2008. The plant was closed for what was anticipated to be four days. Maple Leaf Foods said: "We have taken a much broader approach to the recall than the actual testing has indicated we need to." (Schedule #1) This was quickly proved incorrect.
